Brain Tumor Detection is one of the most difficult tasks in medical image processing. The detection task is difficult to perform because there is a lot of diversity in the images as brain tumors come in different shapes and textures. Brain tumors arise from different types of cells and the cells can suggest things like the nature, severity, and rarity of the tumor. Tumors can occur in different locations and the location of tumors can suggest something about the type of cells causing the tumor which can aid further diagnosis. The task of brain tumor detection can become aggravating by the problems which are present in almost all digital images e.g. illumination problems. Tumor and non-tumor images can have overlapping image intensities which makes it difficult for any model to make good predictions from raw images. This paper proposes a novel method to detect brain tumors from various brain images by first carrying out different image preprocessing methods i.e.. Histogram equalization and opening which was followed by a convolutional neural network. The paper also discusses other image preprocessing techniques apart from the ones that are finalized for training and their impact on our dataset. Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) was employed for the task of classification.
